Here’s what we have coming up!

Summer Play Days at St Giles:

On four Wednesdays over the summer holidays, for five whole glorious hours families are invited to join us for some completely child-directed play for all ages. Simply drop in whenever you like and let your children explore!

We’ll be bringing a spot of adventure play to the heart of the city, nestled beside the beautiful historical St Giles-in-the-Fields. Loads on offer, from oodles of loose parts to junk modelling, messy play, painting, den making, woodwork and even some building.
